Still Looking For 03/04 Rear Exhaust

I need an 03/04 rear exhaust for my sedan. Anyone have one they want to sell to me for cheap? Prefer local bay area pick-up.

i tried putting the 06 rear exhaust and it doesn't look like it will fit properly.

Right now, i have the stock y-pipe and mid-pipe already installed. Only missing the rear exhaust muffler. By the way, has anyone tried driving w/out the rear exhaust? Would you get pulled over w/o a rear muffler? I may have to drive the car until I get a rear exhaust. Hhhmmmmm.

It's going to be loud and sound like crap. If you just need the rear then what about getting the HKS rear section or finding someone who got it and wants to sell their stock. I guess that's the point of this thread.

That's true, a quick magnaflow and some pipe would fix your problem.

I test fitted it myself and from the looks of it, it will be a very snug fit. The 06 muffler is wider and longer than the 03's. I'm afraid there wont be enough clearance between the muffler body and the heat shield and bumper. I really didn't want to take any chances.
I could go w/ the HKS but i'm trying to get my exhaust to be "QUIET" again so the stock muffler is my best bet.

Honestly, the HKS is very nice. Not too loud at all. It has a great tone. I have heard Stillen is very loud. I had a custom exhaust made at a local muffler shop. Spent $550 to get a dual Magnaflow, resonators and dual double tips. In the long run it SUCKED. It was not engineered for our cars. It sounded like crap. Now I have the oem y-pipe, a coupe midpipe and the HKS rear section. I couldn't be happier with any other set up.

Good luck.

Andy
